Nice:.... Once we get the 2ND fan Switch in, we will do the
same Experiment with 1 FAN running, then ALL FANS running.. HA

Couple questions about your setup:
What material did you use to make the grill and how did you secure it?

How much voltage is all of this gonna draw from the battery?
How long do you anticipate running the fans for?

OK:
Grill was bought from Guy on Facebook Selling custom Grills.
VOLTAGE: A TON, 9 Amps per the Spec Sheet, Will let you know Actual When we test IT,
Again i am planning on running a Jump pack to power IT
About 15 Min Between Runs, but that remains to be SEEN, again testing to come...! ;D

Finally finished up this install,  ;D
Hard wired the Fan set to the Battery (with 25 Amp Fuse inline)
Installed a Push button On/Off Switch
ordered up the Battery Jump/Start Pack ProSeries (Model PSJ-1612-CA)
Picked because of 22 AMP Hr battery set (should be able to run the fans for 2-3 Hours Total)

Nice. I'm sure you'll have great results. After my recent experience at the track i'm almost wondering if this setup isn't overkill though. with just 1 of the OEM fans running and hood up my IAT's dropped to the low 100's in about 30-40 minutes.
If there's not many cars at the track and you're pretty much gonna hot lap i could see needing a bigger setup like this though. Should cool the heads and block real quick!

Since I only have about 110.00 In this total,
It is a no Brainier - I hope 15 to 20 Min Cool Down
Will be doing Test and tune 1 or 2 Sundays in Oct to test the results....
